What is the solution to the equation 6x + 2 = 9x - 1

Mathematics

Serhud [2]3 years ago

6x + 2 = 9x - 1

6x - 9x = - 1 - 2

-3x = -3

x = -3/-3

x = 1

Prove:

Let x = 1

6x + 2 = 9x - 1

6(1) + 2 = 9(1) - 1

6 + 2 = 9 - 1

8 = 8

It checks to be true.

The answer is x = 1.

Answer:

X=1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You subtract 6x with 9x so it should equal 2=3x-1

2.You add 1 to the 2 so it should be 3=3x

3.You divide 3 on both sides so it should be 3/3=3x/3

4.After you divide you finally get the answer 1=x or x=1

| x - 1 | = 5x + 10<br> Check for extraneous solutions.
Ronch [10]
[x-1]=5x+10

We have two equations:
1) x-1=5x+10

x-1=5x+10
x-5x=10+1
-4x=11
x=-11/4

2) x-1=-(5x+10)

x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-5x-10
x+5x=-10+1
6x=-9
x=-9/6=-3/2

we have two  possible solutions:
solution₁;       x=-11/4
solution₂:       x=-3/2

we check it out:
1) x=-11/4
[x-1]=5x+10
[-11/4  - 1]=5(-11/4)+10
[(-11-4)/4]=-55/4  + 10
[-15/4]=(-55+40) /4
15/4≠-15/4   This solution don´t work.

2) x=-3/2
[x-1]=5x+10
[-3/2  - 1]=5(-3/2)+10
[(-3-2)/2]=-15/2  + 10
[-5/2]=(-15+20)/2
5/2=5/2; this solution works.

Therefore:

Answer: x=-3/2.

Find the geometric proof
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Line l is bisector of MO... (given)

\therefore MN = NO.... (1)

\because MN + NO = MO..(M-N-O)

\therefore NO + NO = MO..[From \:(1)]

\therefore 2NO = MO

\therefore NO = \frac{1}{2} MO

\therefore NO = \frac{1}{2}\times 24..(\because MO=24)

\therefore NO =12

Thus Proved
